J.S. Bach: Six Suites for Viola Solo

J.S. Bach: Six Suites for Viola Solo

On this recording, Bach’s six cello suites are played on the viola by one of the instrument’s greatest exponents, Kim Kashkashian. For Kashkashian, Bach’s music is both a ‘true and faithful companion' and a reference point against which all creative endeavour may be measured. The poetry and radiance of Bach’s Cello Suites (BWV 1007-1012) are transfigured in these remarkable interpretations.
